I’m wild about macadamia nut “ricotta,” particularly when it dresses one of the addictive pizzas at this popular Midtown eatery. Proprietor and chef Christopher Slawson has established a niche here for inspired, plant-based cuisine. His fresh-pressed juices, salads, hot soups and pizza draw a fit, stylish crowd. They’re on to something: Healthy tastes delicious here. And if you don’t believe me, try CK’s salted caramel “ice cream,” an insanely good, creamy treat made of coconut milk, cashew cream and a few other nutritious yet sinfully good ingredients.

If you blink, you’ll miss this place as you drive past the strip plazas of State Road 7 in Royal Palm Beach. But sooner or later – especially if you crave some lovingly cooked, steaming bowls of Japanese noodles – you’ll find it. You may have to wait for one of the few tables in this tiny, authentic Japanese café, but the wait is worth it. From pan-seared gyoza to soul-soothing ramen to nabeyaki udon served in a cast iron hot pot, there’s plenty to explore on this menu.

I’ll see your cold pizza for breakfast and raise you one of the new, decadent and hot brunch pizzas from Mellow Mushroom’s Delray Beach location. This location just kicked off a “Mellow Mornings” Sunday brunch that offers a variety of egg-topped breakfast pizzas, breakfast burritos and breakfast pretzels that are topped with maple syrup, a la French toast. The pizzas include The Classic (bacon, eggs, sausage, cheddar, mozzarella, mushrooms and chives on a garlic and oil-brushed crust) and The Veggie (a mushroom trio, spinach, eggs, feta, mozzarella, roasted peppers and avocado on a garlic and oil-brushed crust). Prices range from $12.99 for a small pizza to $24.99 for a large. Brunch sips include Irish Coffee ($5.50), as well as Bloody Marys and Mimosas starting at $4.20

This is the only location in Palm Beach County offering the Sunday brunch, which is served from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
